Soak up the Grecian sunshine from this villa, based in Gallos and just a short drive from north Crete's stunning beaches. This home is designed to make the most of the gorgeous weather, with an outdoor pool for cooling off and plenty of loungers for topping up your tan. We love the balcony, providing picturesque views of the sea in the distance. Interior-wise, a couple of sofa beds means ten guests could fit – although it'll be a squeeze. And while it may not have the swanky contemporary style or the quaint charm of some other villas on the island, we think it's a joyful place to make some happy holiday memories.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in a private bedroom, while a further two will sleep on the sofa bed in the main bedroom.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There is free parking at the home for up to four cars.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
*The pool is only available to use between 1st April and 10th November. It's not fenced, so children must be supervised at all times.
*The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.*Tourist Tax is included in the total price of your booking
